The legend of rebirth

Chapter 127 First Contact
In the afternoon, the three of Ye Luo, who had finished their lunch, each made a cup of tea and drank it leisurely.

"Ye Luo, what do you think of Mo'er's signing with Universal?" Wang Nicole asked while scratching the screen of the tablet in her hand.

"What can I think?" Ye Luo smiled and shook her head, then glanced at Chu Mo'er beside her, "Mo'er asked me to discuss it because she respected me, but in the end, she still has to make the decision by herself."

"Then what's your opinion?" Chu Mo'er asked.

"My opinion is, let's see what the other party has to say first." Ye Luo turned his head and smiled at Chu Mo'er, "If it doesn't work, we won't sign for now. It’s not too late to talk to Universal.”

"En." Chu Mo'er nodded.

The three of them chatted for a while before they heard the doorbell ring.

"They're here." Ye Luo stood up holding the teacup, "Nicole, let's wait in the inner room first."

"Oh!" Wang Nicole picked up her computer and asked, "Mo'er, it doesn't matter if you are alone."

"It's okay, anyway, you are next door, if you have any questions, I will come in and discuss with you." Chu Mo'er said.

……

The so-called inner room is actually the bedroom. As soon as Wang Nicole came in, she jumped onto the bed and continued to look at the computer in her arms.

"What are you looking at?" Ye Luo sat on the chair by the window and asked.

"News, today, the news on the Internet is being updated crazily, and the direction of the wind is really changing all the time." Wang Nicole said.

"What is it like now?"

"Now the focus on the Internet is no longer hype and conspiracy theories, but the contract issue of these young girls." Wang Nicole looked up and said.

"The top [-] contestants who entered the finals have all been invited by Universal Entertainment. Judging from the information received on the Internet, it seems that Chu Mo'er and Song Yan have not signed contracts with Universal yet and started negotiations. , and the other ten people have already initially reached their intentions, but there are many rumors about the details, and none of them are reliable."

"Oh." Ye Luo nodded.

"Of course, the topic about you Ye Luo has not stopped. Everyone is guessing what kind of attitude Universal Entertainment will use to attract you." Wang Nicole glanced at Ye Luo, "It seems that you may very rich..."

"And then?" Ye Luo knew that this girl must have something to say.

"Then I pretended to be your girlfriend for a month, and I lost a lot of reputation. I think it will be difficult to get married in the future. You have to show it?" Wang Nicole blinked her big eyes and asked anxiously.

"How do you say that?" Ye Luo began to play dumb.

"Discount?" Wang Nicole raised her eyebrows.

Ye Luo scratched her head: "How much?"

"Uh..." Wang Nicole began to count with her fingers, "Mo'er's babysitting fee, your girlfriend's fee, reputation loss fee, mental loss fee, news collection fee, information provision fee, all add up, if you don't It seems unreasonable to give a million dollars!"

"So many!" Ye Luo rolled his eyes: "Are you trying to force me to submit, and then make you a regular?"

"You have a good idea." Wang Nicole gave Ye Luo a sideways glance, "I won't rob Mo'er for a man."

"It's fine..." Ye Luo looked frightened, and deliberately patted his chest as if he was still alive after a catastrophe.

"Hmph!" Wang Nicole returned to her former domineering nature, "In short, you owe me 100 million!"

Ye Luo smiled and looked at this girl who was cheating, and said: "Nicole, you are so greedy for money, it is really suitable to be a manager, why don't you go to the next door now and help Chu Mo'er take a look contract?"

"Stupid, as a broker, you have to go to the industry association to apply for the exam, and I haven't taken the exam." Wang Nicole said contemptuously, "It's okay to be joking, but if you really want to help Mo'er sign the contract, I will sell you have no idea."

Speaking of this, Wang Nicole said with some concern, "Mo'er has been talking with them outside for a while, why is there no news?"

Just as she was talking, the bedroom door was gently pushed open. Chu Mo'er frowned, walked in with a stack of documents in her hands, and then turned around and closed the door.

"Mo'er! What do you say?" Wang Nicole jumped up from the bed and jumped to Chu Moer's side.

Chu Mo'er spread out the documents in her hand on the bed, and said softly, "You guys take a look."

"The agent must be appointed by the company, and the arrangement of the performance is subject to the arrangement of the company and the agent..." Wang Nicole read out some of the terms, "The basic salary is not bad, but the labor fee for commercial performances is a bit low."

"The record sales commission is only 5.00%?" Ye Luo also frowned.

Although Dream gave Ye Luo the treatment last time, it was also 5.00%, but producers and singers are different, singers can only release one album a year, at most two, and if Ye Luo becomes the deputy director, within a year, The number of albums produced under his name can be as many as dozens, and most of the songs do not need to be written by himself, so it is also 5.00%. The gap in this can be described as heaven and earth.

5.00% record commission, for a singer, is obviously far below the industry standard.

"And this is a ten-year long contract." Wang Nicole said angrily, "This is too bullying! Using this kind of contract to tie Mo'er for ten years? After ten years, Chu Mo'er will be almost 30 Years old!"

"This contract..." Chu Mo'er lowered her head and said softly, "I'm sure I won't be satisfied, what do you think?"

"Mo'er, you are too honest!" Wang Nicole said, "If I face this kind of contract, I will directly pour tea on that Xiong's face!"

"Don't worry." Ye Luo seemed much calmer, and said, "Business negotiations are about extortionate prices and repaying the money on the spot. In this way, I will go out with Mo'er and talk to them. Nicole, you can continue to watch the news. Let's see if the contract details of other players have been revealed."

Wang Nicole nodded, and said worriedly, "Ye Luo, don't let Mo'er be bullied."

"Don't worry." Ye Luo nodded slightly, took Chu Mo'er's wrist, and the two walked out of the bedroom together.

At this time, there were two people in the outer living room.

The one sitting on the sofa in the middle, although slightly fat, has the vigilance and capability of a professional manager all over his body, with piercing eyes, and when he saw Ye Luo and Chu Mo'er come out, he immediately stood up .

The other person, sitting on the single sofa on the left, has a thin figure, sharp facial features, and a staid look. He wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses. When he sees the manager standing up beside him, he Stand up slowly.

"Mr. Ye, it turns out that you are here too, so that would be great." The fat manager introduced himself, "My name is Xiong Pinggui, and I am the deputy general manager of Universal Entertainment. The person next to me is Manager Zhang, who is in charge of the company's legal affairs."

"Hello." Ye Luo nodded slightly, walked to the single sofa on the right side with Chu Mo'er, and sat down slowly.Chu Mo'er was sitting in this position just now, but now, she simply sat on the armrest of the sofa, leaning against Ye Luo.

Xiong Pinggui has been in the workplace for many years, and when he saw the sitting posture of the two of them, he knew that Chu Mo'er was definitely following Ye Luo's lead, so he smiled slightly and said, "I don't know if Mr. Ye has read the contract we drafted with Ms. Chu just now."

Ye Luo nodded, and then slowly said: "Manager Xiong, this contract, the conditions given by Universal Entertainment, seem to be a bit harsh. Some terms, can we discuss it again?"

"Hehe, it's easy to say, easy to say." Xiong Pinggui's smile continued, "The contract that I showed Miss Chu just now is a standard contract, which is basically the case for young female contestants. But Miss Chu is The champion of the new girls, of course, we will not just give a standard contract, the treatment can be improved a little bit."

Ye Luo understood in his heart that this should be a common technique in business negotiations, first set the tone with a low-priced contract, and then raise it a bit higher, which can not only make life easier for the other party, but also guarantee the interests of Universal Entertainment.

"So, how much can it be improved?" Ye Luo asked.

"We can increase the remuneration for commercial performances by 50.00% from the original basis. As for the share of the record..." Xiong Pinggui seemed to have made a lot of determination, and said boldly, "Then double it again, [-]% out of ten!"

Ye Luo pondered for a while. In fact, he didn't have enough experience in this kind of business negotiation. For a singer of Chu Mo'er's level, he actually didn't know what kind of contract he could get.

But there is one thing Ye Luo understands. The other party is now taking the initiative to let go, so this kind of offer is definitely not their bottom line.

So Ye Luo chose to remain silent, not expressing his opinion for the time being.

Seeing that Ye Luo was indifferent, Xiong Pinggui continued: "Since Mr. Ye is present, I have something to say, so I will say it directly. Mr. Ye's talent is appreciated by the company's board of directors, and our Director Chen also entrusted me. If possible, he must Sign you too."

Speaking of this, Xiong Pinggui looked at Ye Luo's reaction, saw that Ye Luo was still calm, and didn't have much resistance, so he continued. "As long as you, Mr. Ye, are willing to sign a contract with Universal Entertainment, then we can further relax the contract that Universal Entertainment gave to Ms. Chu, and even give similar treatment to domestic queens like Deng Qi."

Hearing this, Ye Luo looked at the slightly fat manager opposite, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

If Wang Nicole's 100 million threat just now was just a joke, then the deputy general manager Xiong is the real one. .

Using Chu Mo'er's contract, by the way, I also included myself.This is indeed a very clever strategy. As long as Chu Mo'er is willing to sign a contract with Universal Entertainment, then Ye Luo has no way to completely refuse.

Just when Ye Luo was silent and thinking about how to respond, Chu Mo'er, who had been silent by his side, suddenly said firmly, "No!"
